A real awakening occurs when one's ego eventually gets burnt out from all of life's difficulties and suffering, and it's then that one surrenders and accepts all that is, and thereafter, one realizes that their ultimate purpose in life is to bring forth the light of consciousness into the world. Thank you so much for bringing your light into the world and showing us the way too Eckhart.🙏

I was in the comfort zone for years thinking I finally found peace, but it was actually just a very comfortable grave that consumed years of my life.

Dearest Eckahart, After 24 years of learning, to be here now listening to you on a tape player over and over and on my iPod over and over I now have your teachings living inside my mind and body and I am so blessed because of it! You have gotten me through 14 years of illness with this work, when I wanted to end it all your words were there! I can't thank you enough! I remember first reading and then listening to The Power of Now and getting a lot from it but as you said and knew I wasn't ready for all of it but it was in there and then in 2012 wow it all came out for me when illness happened. Now today listening to this remembering to use every moment as an opportunity for transformation is so empowering. Nothing is a waste! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I love you! If I won the lottery the one thing I would love to do is see you in person! Sitting in presence is my favorite and I cry tears of joy every time I do it with you! I hope to meet you in heaven!

" If you don´t escape, if you allow the suffering to be there, if you are ready to face it, if you are not trying somehow to forget it, then you are different. Suffering is there but just around you; it is not in the center, it is on the periphery. It is impossible for suffering to be in the center; it is not in the nature of things. It is always on the periphery and you are the center. So when you allow it to happen, you don´t escape, you don´t run, you are not in a panic, suddenly you become aware that suffering is there on the periphery as if happening to someone else, not to you, and you are looking at it. A subtle joy spreads all over your being because you have realized one of the basic truths of life, that you are bliss and not suffering."

I do think that from the individual perspective everything IS meaningless. We are not here as individuals to LEARN anything, or ACHIEVE anything. Eckhart himself has talked about this. Living in a physical/ material world, we must DO, and yet we are aware of the futility of our doing. How could we not despair?

Greetings from Chattanooga, TN. I had my liver unexpectedly taken away from me. I had a 2 week warning was the first I knew, then I would pass. I can relate to this video. Now, I wouldn't change a thing, even though I will be immunocompromised the rest of my life. I came home from the hospital exactly when Covid19 began, so I had my mobility also taken away, for 19 months, nothing but Dr. visits and monthly labs. I gained much more than I lost. Thank you for you time and for sharing your knowledge and wisdom.

I’m convinced that suffering contains in it the greatest gift we can possibly receive.. if we accept our suffering and live with joy. This will make your experience in the present and appreciation for life more beautiful than you can imagine

I can get a glimpse of what he is saying here. I'm 9 years free of cancer, but I am in constant pain from the procedures. I have to transcend this pain or face a lifetime of medication. Because this pain is always present, I feel that I must therefore shift my focus away from " me" or I can't function. I can understand how this causes a more inward focus. I became unaware of the pain when I am calm and when I meditate. Which is an ongoing practice day by day.

maybe green smoothies or carnivore can help heal the body/pain. Brooke Goldner here on youtube healed her lupus with raw cruciferous vegetables and I have also seen a lot of people here on youtube heal chronic health problems with carnivore.

Our minds are always offering us a choice of thinking material, sane or insane? Rational, happy, fun and peaceful thinking or Irrational, unhappy, fearful and anxious thinking. The option we go for is always our very own free choice, although we can't control the options (thoughts) offered the choice and decision is always ours 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Nihilism was a stage that helped me awaken, and I still have nihilistic beliefs. It doesn’t mean everything is random (evolution isn’t random either) but that there is no special purpose for humans or any other species for that matter. We’re not here to win a species for a creator or advance technology or whatever. We’re just here to be alive.

@@haraldtheyounger5504But what is the truth then ?

Suffering is a teacher, it burns away the ego's delusions so that we can see clearly, it consumes the ego until it surrenders and silences itself so you may finally listen to your true voice. You can avoid years of unnecessary pain simply by listening to yourself honestly at any time and questioning all the things that lead to suffering. You'll realise that all pain is self inflicted and that you can stop it anytime, the purpose was to lead to your own self awareness, that's what makes suffering the greatest teacher because it only appears if you refuse to listen.

Lieben Dank Eckhart… Ich durfte schon sehr viel lernen. Herzlichen Dank und viele Grüße aus der alten Heimat.

I‘m on a point - in deep breakdown, meaningless of everything - where I could not write on a white paper anything about me, who I am?! Nothing would be valid to write as nothing would feel - that’s me. If I would write something it would be the „old“ view of myself. The „new“ is not visible, felt at all and the (ego) mind pushes me to „to this“, „do this not“ but I don’t feel comfortable by any „forced suggestion“ by the ego mind. At the moment I try my best to be in the blank me - in my inner SPA somehow. Very very challenging time and I know, it’s necessary that „the Great Shift“ needs to come, the old (self & world in general) has to fallen, break down for the new what will/has to come 🙏

Thanks Eckhart...I feel a lot better now. I was worried my life was a waste 😊

​@@davidly2786 ​vou escrever em português, daí você traduz. Recomendo que, dúvidas como esta, de assuntos espirituais elevados de mestres Auto-Realizados, você tente buscar uma resposta diretamente deles (como através de seus livros, vídeos, cursos, etc). Compartilho contigo 2 recursos que eu uso e que ajudam a achar respostas à dúvidas específicas (como esta), que é: - Na página do KZread do Eckhart, vc ir em "buscar/procurar" e digitar a 'palavra chave' principal da sua dúvida (neste seu caso é: 'consciência', 'presença', 'plena atenção', etc). - Outra forma é buscar pelo índice dos livros dele, o capítulo que mais se relaciona com a sua dúvida (mas neste caso você já tem que ter lido pelo menos uma parte do livro, pra ter uma ideia geral dos assuntos, termos que ele usa, etc). Mas caso queira uma resposta minha, seria: 'trazer mais consciência' = 'expandir a consciência' = 'aumentar sua frequência' = 'evoluir' = 'o seu propósito primário na vida'. Segundo o Eckhart, isto você consegue através de práticas espirituais. O Eckhart recomenda várias. As principais que eu sei são: - praticar o 'foco da consciência nos sentidos (principalmente visão e audição)', a cada momento - praticar o 'foco da consciência no corpo/campo interior (principalmente do interior do seu peito e barriga, quando há emoções negativas), a cada momento - praticar o 'foco da consciência na respiração', a cada momento - praticar o 'foco da consciência dos pensamentos', a cada momento - quando há emoções negativas, praticar em conjunto (enquanto houver emoções nevativas, ou durante o tempo que você puder/conseguir/suportar): praticar a 'consciência dos sentidos a cada momento (principalmente visão e audição)', e a 'Consciência das emoções negativas' (que é a mesma prática do corpo/campo interior). Com isto a Consciência/Ser aos poucos irá transmutár as energias negativas em Consciência/Ser (aumentando seu nível de Consciência/frequência)' - 'quando há pensamentos negativos, praticar (enquanto houver pensamentos negativos, ou durante o tempo que você puder/conseguir/suportar): a 'consciência dos sentidos a cada momento (principalmente visão e audição)', e depois substituir (ou ficar alternando) pela 'consciência dos pensamentos', pra Consciência/Ser aos poucos transmutá-los em Consciência/Ser (aumentando seu nível de Consciência/frequência)' Tem outras, mas estas são as principais. E praticando tudo isto, com o tempo, você passará a ter a 'percepção/consciênca da consciência/presença/Ser', que será o 'objetivo final' das práticas espirituais. Com isto, você terá expandido pra Consciência / Ser / Consciência Superior. Isto é o que ele fala que você será um 'portador de frequência (da Consciência/Ser)' que ele comenta, e terá cumprido o seu propósito primário na vida. Mas a minha descrição pode ter erros (tanto minhas, quanto de tradução). Use apenas pra ter uma ideia. Depois substitua pela explicação do próprio Eckhart. Boa sorte!
